Please attach an example document.
Set to NEEDINFO.
Change back to UNCONFIRMED after you have provided the document.

I think it is especially needed because in your screenshot we see different results.

same examples are attached. The mom^1 gets separated while the m^2 mostly not.

one should simply print the exponents a tad closer to the basis.

e.g., bioRxiv messes up the ^'s in the whole document bcse of the spaces before the ^'s.

Have tested this one with my own text. Set in a normal text '1' and '2' as superscripted and couldn't detect any problem while exporting to PDF.

My system: OpenSUE 15.4 64bit rpm Linux with LO 7.5.2.2
